Costamed Medical Group has recently broken ground on a state-of-the- art expansion which includes a new intensive care unit. Additionally, the 600-meter hospital wing will incorporate 10 additional hospital rooms, a nurse’s station, a new, more efficient, Emergency Room entry, a specialized area where up to 8 patients in shock can be treated simultaneously, and an outpatient surgery area. During the ground breaking ceremony last week, Dr. Ricardo Segovia Gasque, Director of Costamed, stated that this is only the first phase of the expansion, which is expected to take 4 years with an estimated cost of 40 million pesos.

Already the largest private hospital in Cozumel, Costamed Hospital Group reaffirms their commitment to improve the level of health care on the island, by continually updating and improving their range hospital services available to the local population as well as island visitors.
